Good evening, Joe!! Got a question....about a month ago, on another thread the subject came up about a new study that they were treating pain with nicotine since there seems to be evidence that such does exist. Do you know where I could find that info? I've searched, but failed. When a pain specialist wanted to give me yet another narcotic and I refused he asked, "Well, what do you do to relieve the pain?" I told him a cigarette helped some. Boy, did that tick him off!!

[Just another Joe]

A little single malt to your taste
How are you, Sea?

[Just another Joe]

Sapphire martini and a Montecristo #4 it is.

[Just another Joe]

I'll check and see if I can find it.
I don't remember about the pain.
Do you remember if the title had the word nicotine in it?

[Just another Joe]

Thanks, DOC.

[SeaDragon]

I am doing well, thanks. A little chilly at the moment but the scotch should help that. Woke up to 6 inches of snow this morning.....

How have you been?

We got winners; we got losers;
Chain smokers and boozers.
An' we got yuppies; we got bikers;
An' we got, thirsty hitchhikers.
And the girls next door dress up like movie stars:
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I love FR.

We got cowboys; we got truckers;
Broken hearted fools and suckers.
An' we got husslers; we got fighters;
Early birds and all nighters.
And the veterans talk about their battle scars:
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I love FR.

I love FR,
It's my kind place.
Just walk in through the front door,
Puts a big smile on my face.
It ain't too far; come as you are.
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I love FR.

I've seen short skirts; we've got high-techs;
Blue collar boys and rednecks.
An' we got lovers; lots of lookers;
I've even seen dancin' girls and hookers.
And we like to drink our beer from a mason jar:
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I love FR, yes I do!

I like my truck, (I like my truck),
An' I like my girlfriend, (I like my girlfriend),
I like to take her out to dinner;
I like a movie now and then:

But I love FR,
It's my kind place.
Just toeing around the dance floor,
Puts a big smile on my face.
No cover charge; come as you are.
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I love FR.
Mm, mm, mmm, mmm, mmm, I just love ol' FR.

[Just another Joe]

That's great, Jim.
We have the Lounge theme song!

[Just another Joe]

[SandyEgo]

Perfect!....see what happens when the bar opens late? No tellin' who will walk in...thanks, Jim - that was great.

[Just another Joe]

Kewl. Since it looks like Kaoroke night has started, the night in the smoker's lounge wouldn't be complete without an anti-smoking war protest song. Remember this one by Steppenwolf?

Words and music by John Kay, Jerry Edmonton, Nick St. Nicholas and Larry Byrom (with a little editing by lockjaw)

(Monster)
Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope
Came to this country to build a new vision
Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope
Like good Christians, some would burn the witches
Later some got slaves to gather riches

But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light

And once the ties with the crown had been broken
Westward in saddle and wagon it went
And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean
Many the lives which had come to an end
While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland
We began the slaughter of the red man

But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light

The blue and grey they stomped it
They kicked it just like a dog
And when the war over
They stuffed it just like a hog

And though the past has it's share of injustice
Kind was the spirit in many a way
But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping
Now it's a monster and will not obey

(Suicide)
The spirit was freedom and justice
And it's keepers seem generous and kind
It's leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
And now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watchin'

Our cities have turned into jungles
And smoke-nazis are stranglin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us
Now we are in an anti-smoking war
No matter who's the winner
We can't pay the cost
'Cause there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watching

(America)
America where are you now?
Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know we need you now
We can't fight alone against the monster

awwck - don't know if this will work or not - guess this is a test - if the above link works, you'll enjoy it. It's titled "Insomnia"...

[SandyEgo]

hmmm - that's strange. That's not the "Insomnia" one - but you'll like this one, too. Just be sure to click on both the male and female...the female is funnier. Back to my files....
